csSection

 The wide functionality of the ConSteel connected with cross-sections suggested detaching a separate module: csSection. This module collects all the tools relate to the creation, property calculation, stress analysis and standard design of a cross-section. Two parallel modeling possibility exist: the General Solid Section (GSS) is an accurate finite element based surface model for any kind of cross-sections including inhomogeneous material (reinforced concrete, composite sections), the Elastic Plate Segment (EPS) is a thin-walled model specially for steel profiles. The steel standard design formulas are easy to evaluate on the EPS model including the real effective section generation of class 4 cross-sections based on the sectional forces resulted from the structural analysis.
